Wood Ducks seem to be in competition with the fall foliage at this time of year. The leaves haven’t yet reached their peak but the ducks are at their finest. The mature and juvenile ducks are everywhere you look, creating flashes of colour as they glide along. The autumn light and trees create beautiful reflections in the water and I took some photos as the duck swam by. The reflections creating a perfect canvas for these marvellous ducks.

    How beautiful. Fantastic photos. We used to keep cute little silver appleyard ducks. Such characters. We never had any trouble with slugs and snails in the garden. They ate the lot.

    Beautiful birds, beautiful photos. I thought that these were Mandarin Ducks at first, but soon realised they were not.
